I got a call from a friend who said he was going to be on the stage in Tampa tonight and said what? His name will remain unknown to you all but I saw two people with his name on the stage tonight! Well, his name is not an unusual one and it was fun to see it on the crawl.
Mitt Romney, Marco Rubio and Clint Eastwood. Now that was quite a night. I bet the lamestreams are already trashing Clint for his shtick of an empty chair. Rubio did great but he had a gaffe at the end I heard and that will be the lead of the lamestreams no doubt. Obama lamestream sheeple are busily fact checking every word and publishing their slams as I write this. I don't seem to recall them fact checking their favorite any time, even as he claims America has 57 states.
But the night belongs to Romney. He is our standard bearer for the top job and I think he did a fine job of articulating the differences between a sitting leftwing President and a free enterprise, right leaning Romney. Jobs jobs jobs. America needs jobs and Obama and his minions have not produced the atmosphere to allow their creation. In fact, thousand of new regulations and the promise of higher taxes and less freedom are Obama's hopes. If there ever was a liar in the Oval Office, well, we had Clinton too, Obama tops the scale. The only promise he kept from 2008 was the sea has not risen.
Romney will get the place in order and the hope restored. All those college grads now living with mom and dad will be able to venture out on their own as job opportunities return after we turn out Obama and his stifling Administration. Romney tonight and Ryan last night have given America a positive "something" to look forward to. But now the work begins. However we will have the democrat convention in Charlotte to get through. The democrats will lie their way through the three days because they have no moral and ethical compass guiding them any longer. Sandra Fluke, the condom babe, will be a main speaker for goodness sakes. I bet these nuts will parade ever segment of deviancy past the cameras for the three days and then tell us all that is what their America is all about.
Romney and Ryan and all the folks we saw and heard at this week's convention were speaking of hope, the American dream, freedom and prosperity. Success should be honored not dishonored as the left and Obama have been saying. Rubio was a excellent example of a generation of new Americans who want to see the reason their parents came here, protected and passed down. His personal stories and Condelezza Rice's personal stories were inspiring for all. The democrat slime merchants call these great Americans "shills" or worse.
So America will get to see the differences between the democrats and Republicans and my guess is the democrats are toast. Americans are an optimistic people, we don't covet the goods and riches of others. We work hard for ourselves and our families and when asked to, we help those that cannot help themselves. We saw a rejection of the nanny state by these Republicans over the last three days and the inspiration of American success. The democrats will be showing us what a big giveaway government is all about and it won't sell.
Great convention on to November and victory for all Americans.

ReplyDeletean attempted victory for aging, angry, uninformed, white christian, NRA type - men.
No honey, for America of all kinds. You lib racists are too predictable.
DeleteKeep up your sexism and racism for all to see!
DeleteSorry Jen you must have no reading comprehension honey. I love everyone and you see skin color only.
DeleteYou'll see America represented next week.
ReplyDeleteThis was all Wonder Bread, funded by billionaires and giant corporate interests. That ain't America.
The business of America is business. You will see the bloodsuckers of the democrat party drinking the hope out of the bloodstream of America. There are more corporate donors at your "party" than were at my party. Hold on to your wallet or pocketbook, your buds are coming for your money.
DeleteHere is the ACCURATE Calvin Coolidge quote:
DeleteThe real statement comes from a speech by Calvin Coolidge called "The Press Under a Free Government" which was given before the American Society of Newspaper Editors in Washington, D.C. on January 17, 1925. The quote is really: "After all, the chief business of the American people is business." However, Coolidge goes on to say that, "Of course the accumulation of wealth cannot be justified as the chief end of existence." He discusses journalism and the thought that the business interests of newspaper owners should not taint reporting. He continues, "American newspapers have seemed to me to be particularly representative of this practical idealism of our people."

LOL ,,,Chick,, I hear the slogan for the DNC is " It's not our fault!"
ReplyDeleteYup,, gotta blame Bush for all your whows.... How's that double standard workn'
for ya'? How bout' all those jobs "O" snuffed? Remember those? Will they be "represented" next week? LOL!! Your full of it.
Walt,
DeleteAlthough not voting for Obama and not a big fan, I can't stand to sit by and let you spew falsehoods. When Obama took office in January 2009 the US was losing 700,000 jobs a month. I don't know what the figure is but he has had somewhere around 30 straight months of job growth. The watered down stimulus has been estimated at creating 2 million jobs. Public sector jobs in state governments have been reduced by 2.5% and 70% of those layoffs were in 12 republican controlled states, which keeps the federal level of unemployment above 8%.
Well hell BenE, I thought Obama was running to fix all that. Hope and change and that. Why would he run knowing the problem and claiming to fix it if he was elected then blame Bush? You just don't understand he asked for the job and failed at the fix.
DeleteWell Todd,
DeleteIt is hard to fix something that is being sabotaged by half of the team. Yes team, our government is supposed to be us and to be representing our interests as whole. I find what has been taking place to literally be something along the lines of treason. Not because I am an Obama supporter because to take down the President real peoples lives were destroyed and the country as a whole has suffered.
Here is a link to a story about the leaders in Congress met to sabotage the Obama presidency. http://www.vanityfair.com/online/wolcott/2012/03/The-Conspiracy-to-Commit-Legislative-Constipation
Attendees-
Attending the dinner were House members Eric Cantor, Jeb Hensarling, Pete Hoekstra, Dan Lungren, Kevin McCarthy, Paul Ryan and Pete Sessions. From the Senate were Tom Coburn, Bob Corker, Jim DeMint, John Ensign and Jon Kyl. Others present were former House Speaker and future – and failed – presidential candidate Newt Gingrich and the Republican strategist Frank Luntz, who organised the dinner and sent out the invitations.
Strategy- Obstructionism
They would take back the House in November 2010, which they did, and use it as a spear to mortally wound Obama in 2011 and take back the Senate and White House in 2012, Draper writes.
"If you act like you're the minority, you're going to stay in the minority," said Keven McCarthy, quoted by Draper. "We've gotta challenge them on every single bill and challenge them on every single campaign."
Hear, Hear.....none dare call it conspiracy, but it was a conspiracy to destroy the President, and in doing so they did not care if they might destroy America.
DeleteFrisch
Oh please. You liberals are too sensitive. That is politics not a conspiracy for goodness sakes. A political party has meetings on how they will deal with the other political party, oh my goodness! The thing you two forget (conveniently) is the democrats have held the Senate since 2006. The R bills to fix the country are in a lockbox over there and Harry Reid won't let the key be released. So is that a conspiracy? Is Harry and the 53 democrats a cabal? Jeeze!
DeleteTodd,
DeleteWhat the leadership and the more than willing participants of the republican legislature are doing is disgusting and as I said before borderline on treason. This to win an election and control to push a sociopath agenda that promotes the welfare of a small privileged few and screws the rest is unjustifiable.
I am not a Democrat and I have plenty to gripe about with the party but what the republican party has become is antithetical to any populist ideals during any time in American history.
BenE, you are too much. Treason? Please, give my readers a break. You really are out there. What, no mention of the Reid part of my comment? Are he and the dems being treasonous for not passing a budget for political reasons. Are they treasonous for holding up over 40 House passed bills and not allowing debate on them?
DeleteI want to hear all about your comment above "I am not a Democrat and I have plenty to gripe about with the party". Seems yuou just ream R's all the time and then do a pattycake with the liberal democrats. We have your number BenE, you give it to us in every post.
Todd,
DeleteThere is more than enough Democratic Party bashing here. I find your most of your complaints to be window dressing and lacking any kind of substance. The things I oppose about the Democratic Party could apply to the Republican Party in many cases. Here is a list of problems I have with the Democratic Party leadership off the top of my head and I am sure it could much bigger than what I can think right now. The sad thing is you would agree with the D's on most of these issues.
-Patriot Act
-FISA Act
-Guantanamo
-Torture
-No debate about use of military force on the floor of congress
-Wars without congressional declarations
-Kill lists
-Suspension of Habeas Corpus
-Violation of Due Process
-Ignoring Bill of Rights
-Blind support for increasing defense budget
-Extension tax breaks (temporary) for wealthy
-Capping FICA at $106,800
-Exemption from FICA with Capital Gains/ Dividends
-Taxing Capital at a lower rate than labor
-Occupying sovereign nations for strategic resources
-Appointing the bankers that caused the crisis to be those who "fix" it
-Taking corporate money while at the same time taking Labor Union money, Trial Lawyer money, money from average Americans
-Opposing public financing because they want to hang on their advantage and power
-Opposing Instant Run Off Voting or Proportionate Representation because they are afraid of losing their advantage or power
-The ignoring the progressive base of the party and those outside of the party
-Putting Medicare and Social Security on the table
-Maintaining 900 foreign military bases in 140 nations
-Arresting single payer advocates while allowing lobbyists from health insurance, pharmaceutical, and medical industries at the table
-Abandoning labor and US workers for campaign and party funding by corporations
-Supporting Free Trade Agreements
-Supporting US participating in WTO
-Being controlled and influenced by Military Industrial Complex
-Allowing the immigration debate be framed about workers instead of employers
-Allowing a million loopholes in the tax system to allow the wealthy and huge corporations to pay zero in federal income taxes
-Suppressing any outside political party's that would threaten to take their progressive base
-Support the coup's and puppet regimes that violate human rights to appease corporate interests
-Continuing doing business with nations such as China and Saudi Arabia despite their absolute violations of natural and human rights
One more that would be high on the list. Supporting the private banking cabal of the Federal Reserve to have control of our money supply and to do so without any oversight.
DeleteBenE you live in the wrong country man. I know we have our problems but my goodness, you hate the place.
DeleteTodd,
DeleteI don't hate the place but rather oppose many of the policies in place at the moment. Let me ask you this- Do you or did you support the policies of the New Deal? If not why didn't you go to another country?
The New Deal was before my time BenE. I am a 1950 birthed guy. As far as my opinion on them? It appears the policies had no affect on the unemployment numbers (20%+) after the first 8 years or so so I would have to give it a failure notice. If WW2 had not happened the country might still be mired in the Great Depression.
DeleteTodd,
DeleteSo the new deal and the policies of the four FDR administrations had nothing to do with the America you grew up and lived in.
Are you that dumb?
Everything in your childhood and into your young adulthood was founded in the policies of the FDR and progressive policies from the 1930's through the great society. You know the America you want to return too. All those policies created an America that was #1 in the world for finished products/ exports, #1 in lending money to other nations, #1 importing raw materials, #1 in size and strength of middle class. The national debt was a non-issue at $900 billion despite having WWII, undeclared military occupations of Korea and Vietnam on the books. Reagan came in started dismantling the policies and added $3 trillion to the debt. We have followed those ideas of supply side, deregulation, and free trade to their disastrous conclusions that led us to where we are today. #1 debtor nation in world history $15 trillion and $700 billion trade deficit annually. #1 exporter of raw materials. #1 importer of finished goods. And having the largest gap of wealth inequality in the developed world because of the policies you and your ilk have been promoting and controlling for the last three decades.
BenE. I see your reading skills are as bad as your logic. Where did I say the New Deal policies had nothing to do with the America I grew up in? Sheesh, no wonder you were whipped in your election attempt. You must have done a lot of fibbing.
DeleteLet me see. My dad came home from the Pacific and was mustered out in September 45'. He saved all his paychecks for four years and came to GV in December of 45' and bought a ranch which had no structure on it. He paid cash and then built a house. He never used the GI Bill and he started his own construction business. He did that until 1977 and then retired. Four months after turning 62 he passed away. He drew four Social Security checks one of which they made my mother send back. So after paying into the system for forty years he got three SS checks. My mother got zip because she was a homemaker and nine years younger.
Dad never took any welfare, foodstamps or other government money all his life and we survived. He seems to have paid in for many years and he supplied jobs for a few hundred people during his work years.
So bud, you have to be a dumbass to think like you do. I grew up in and around people who did for themselves (entrepreneurs) , played by the rules and were honest, law abiding folks who paid their taxes. How about it, BenE, are you doing the same?
Well Todd,
DeleteDo you even know what the New Deal and FDR policies did? Do some homework and then come back to the big boy table. It is a touching story about your parents, I think a many Americans have very similar stories. I guess no matter what you can never realize that SS was helping your neighbor, dad's clients, orphaned friend, ect... It is a Social Security Insurance program. But if it didn't help your family personally to the hell with the program. I'll tell you a story of an 81 year family friend I am a conservator too. He worked for 50 plus years paying into SS. He never married or had children. At 77 years old he was diagnosed with Dementia. Lost his drivers license and ability to get around. He entered into a assisted care and without his SS on top of his pension from IGA he would be either be dead or in the streets. He contributed to this country in so many way that it cannot be measured and since his ability to be monetary productive has diminished he should be discarded by your philosophy.
How about you Todd, have you used any government programs to help you out? Have you owned up to all of your debts? Have you ever exploited the system for personal gain?
Dodging the question eh BenE. Are you even paying attention? It appears not. Your friend who I guess you are being paid by the taxpayers to take care of is a sad ale. But you totally misunderstand the New Deal. Do you even know what it was? Apparently not.
DeleteI would suggest you go to the library, take out some books on it and start reading. Your ignorance about it is palpable. I just can't teach you things you should have learned in school.
So, put those Bermuda shorts on, a T-shirt that says "spank me" on the back and try to keep up. Amazing ignorance.
Todd,
DeleteNope I don't get paid anything to help other human beings in need, I do it because it is the correct thing to do.
I know what the New Deal and FDR policies are and what they created. That is why I defend them and give examples how they created the largest strongest middle class in world history. There is no denying the history of this period of economic growth in America.
You are determined to live the remainder of you life in ignorance that is you choice. I strongly suggest you read about Frances Perkins. I have and she is one of the most incredible women of the 20th Century. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=102959041
It appears that you two dislike each other and don't really read what the other writes.
Delete"I find what has been taking place to literally be something along the lines of treason."
DeleteAre you guys ready? Are you enjoying the game? This ain't tiddlywinks.
M.
BTW Jen,, The Libby message ( smear attempt) really didn't get out. No one was watching
ReplyDeleteLib operated news.
Most informed and educated people today are on social media and know immediately whats going on. You're just one of those angry, aging, uninformed white christian men. Nothing wrong with that. Buts its a dying demographic group.
ReplyDeleteSorry.
It's about time you came out from under your rock.
DeleteAnd have I got news for YOU! LIBS are even getting beat
there too.!! But Hay,,, what ever floats your boat.
Just like all the rest, come election night you will
become a member of the " Just what the "F" happened????" Party.
BTW Miss " me of higher lernin'" since you LOVE to take digs at my spellin',,, UUhhhh " buts"? Really?? It never fails.... those that love to show just how smart they are,, screw up big on the smallest of words. Yes... hang your head in shame... BUSTED!! LOL
Just not going to take on that "double standard" with your "superior intellect"? Nor the lost jobs under "O"? ( But pick on Ryan and Mitt)
DeleteIs that "elevated thinking" at a loss for you?
I guess this common ditch digger is just too much of a challenge.
( So what will the personal attack be this time? This should be good.LOL)
Jen, why are you such a racist? You seem obsessed with skin color.
DeleteRacist? hardly.:) I'm stating facts about the demographic changes in America. And I think diversity of thought and values is a very good thing. Shake up the old cobwebs and assumptions. The White Bread mentality of a century ago doesn't fit the demographic profile of today's America.
DeleteYep, you are a racist Jen. You can't escape your own words. I feel sad for you. America is way better than you and your petty racism.
DeleteJen,
DeleteDon't worry about it, Todd was calling all progressives racist the other day when I was accused of being racist and a bigot for calling a speaker at the republican convention a republican shill.
Say what? You libs are too funny. The Republiucans and conservatives see people you libs see a color. BenE, you need to arrive in the 21st century man. You might have done better in 1960 Montgomery.
DeleteHi Todd,
DeleteYou know what big boy? I see reality. I report on reality. Yes, the color of America is changing and I find it interesting. In a societal and a political sense. But you're right- I simply cannot relate to your frustrations and bitter feelings about the changes in America. You hate them, I welcome them. I am an American optimist. The future of energy, transportation, technology- EXCITING stuff! You bunch of old men are just sad, hoping for the return of the 1950s. Visions of June Cleaver.
Well SteveF/Jen has revealed himself/herself once again. Are you a transgender person? You are a hateful negative person Steve/Jen and your words prove it so. I am a conservative optimist and welcome people of all colors and ethnicity to join in America. You want them to get a handout so they become beholden to you and your leftwing principals (to cynically get their votes). You divide peoples I want us to all be Americans.
DeleteAfrican-Americans are buying the Republican message? Oh really? :)
Delete97% support for the President tells you everything you need to know.
What about the Latino vote? 70% support for the Prsident. Are they buying into the Republican message? :)
Are those millions of Americans just stupid and uninformed? Go ahead and say it boys.
The minority vote has been bamboozled by the liberal propaganda. They are returning to the proper party. Just watch this November.
DeleteHear the news about "O",, Ken/Jen? He only decided to go into the disaster aria
ReplyDeleteAFTER he found out Mitt was already on his way. We see just where Obummer's priorities are. He's more interested in saving his own political hide than helping
disaster victims.
Walt I always post under my name, my full name. No need for cowardly accusations directed to Jen or me. I think you have an issue with Jen because she basically cleans your clock on every reply you make directed to her posts. You never answer a direct question Walt. But go ahead and rant about a Prius or a Volt.
DeleteKen Jones
As a observer in the Walt and Jen back and forth I would say Jen started it by namecalling. I give you libs credit though, you always defend the lefty namecallers at every turn.
DeleteThen tell me... When Jen shows up, your nowhere to be found,
DeleteNow your here, and she isn't. ( yes,,I keep track)
Furthermore, you both sound a lot alike. That's OK,, If you want to let your feminist side out now and then who am I to say otherwise?
What ever floats your boat.( just showing a little of that compassion
I'm not supposed to have) Just how can you walk in those size 13 stilettos is all I want to ask. And I thought my pointy Cowboy boots cramped my toes.
Walt
DeleteUnlike you I post my full name. Unlike you I don't use any fake screen names. Unlike you I don't make stupid accusations and try and imagine men in high heels. Try being a decent man Walt not a keyboard coward.
Ken Jones
Nope, no accusations, just pointing out a noticeable pattern.
DeleteDon't worry, your secret is safe with me.( and Scott, and Todd, and.....) BTW,, It sure sounds like you have issues with men in women's cloths... Like its offencive or something. ( isn't that what accuse Republicans of? Not good....)
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
DeleteLOL.. still in grade school? Last time I herd that line was on a school yard.
DeleteJen -
ReplyDeleteNever mind the sexism displayed here. These little guys don't know what to do with a strong, thoughtful woman. They had to call you "honey" and "sweetheart" and when that didn't work they turned you into a man (Ken). Can you imagine how "small" they feel? Sometimes little packages also have small minds. Oh well.......
WOW!! Now "sexism" is on the menu. So what special treatment do you demand today? Give us a break.
DeleteWell Susan,, The little girl your trying to defend started this little show. Strong?? Thoughtful??? REALLY? Is that why she refuses to answer
direct questions? Since you feel the need to jump in and "defend" the one you say is "strong",, Care to finish the task that was given to the "thoughtful" one? Obviously she's just not up to the task and challenge.
But if you want to talk about " equality of the sexes" I'm game for that too. Don't forget the key word of that discussion is "equality".
Think you can keep it there without stooping to personal attacks like you already have in your first post here?
Swxism? Wow, you people try it all. Then you become what you claim others are. Small? Package? Liberal dog whistles for man haters.
Deleteoops, sexism.
Deleteyou could say that about virtually every message coming from your keyboard- OOPS!
DeleteNow that's funny!
Deleteyou did call her honey and girly a lot....if it isn't sexist it is surely a little condescending regardless of the political points/stances either of you took.
DeleteNever called her girly. Where did you get that?
DeleteMy bad, Walt called her "chick" once in addition to honey. No matter though, still condescending. I feel like Todd's entire article has been tarnished because of this arguing here. It isn't even constructive arguing. It has devolved to name calling and accusations of name calling. It isn't helping anyone or furthering anybody's point.
DeleteIt has been an entertaining exchange.
DeleteSorry Bill, I don't buy into the "PC" garbage. I tell it as I see it.
DeleteDid you happen to notice just who dragged this into the gutter? The Lefties. They refuse to take on any questions headed their way.
When I do get a response, it's in the form of an attack in some shape, or form.
We just like to watch you post Walt. It's like observing a strange species at the zoo.
DeleteHopefully, the candidate who cares about the people will win this election.
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see how "Christians" will vote. Unfortunately, the ruling class has convinced the middle class and poor to vote with them by hitting hot button issues like homosexuality, choice and abortion.
If a candidate from either side raps themselves with the flag and aligns on these moral issues, they can get groups to blindly follow them in policies that actually could feed greed and hurt the masses. There is the crux of the issue. Will the policies hurt or help the masses? Let's not get blinded by the politicians from either side.
Also, traditionally, "Christians" have viewed mormons as counterfeits, a false believe with a similar moral stance. So, it will be very interesting to see if the "Christians" support Romney in this election.
This election will be telling.
When Republicans have had the reins, this is what they’ve done: two wars not paid for, prescription drug benefit not paid for, two tax cuts that mostly benefited the rich not paid for. They put all that stuff on the deficit, $1.3 trillion sitting there as–in a deficit when Obama took over, after the previous Democratic president (BILL CLINTON) had handed him a surplus.
ReplyDeleteDON'T LET REPUBLICANS DESTROY US AGAIN. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT AGAIN.
Back to that lame argument? Oh..Please.... Ever hear of 9/11?
DeleteI' guess you're one of those that blamed America first,and felt we had it coming. The people with that line of thinking are those that still try and use "unfunded war" as an argument these days. And the "free stuff"?
( drug bennys) Oh, well,, other peoples money has run out.
So ya' don't like rich A'? Got a task for ya then. Head on over
to your closest homeless camp and find a nice paying job.
I will find a guy (or gal) that HAS money ( Ya,, a rich guy)
and hit him (or her)up for employment. Who do you think has a better chance of getting gainfully employed?
And now to your little deficit ditty. "O" has accrued MORE than ANY OTHER Prez., and MORE than ALL of THEM combined. FACT..
"O" owns the downgrade in the nations credit rating drop. First time in history. And there is a huge list of "negative firsts" for Obummer.
I had this clown pegged from day one.
At this point, only militant Lefties will still vote for this sorry excuse of a (ha)prez.
BTW,, How come a double standard is fine and dandy ? What was demanded from Bush, "O" is excused from.. Do explain that.
BTW, I did a little looking. Something you should have done before popping off. That prescription drug thing your griping about was snuffed by your friendly neighborhood Libs, when they had control of both houses. ( Damn those small details.)
DeleteAye, there have been plenty of wars by both parties that can be considered immoral. Definitely the Iraq war had overtones in that vein. We'll see how
Deletehistory treats that in time. So far it's too close for comfort.
Hopefully, 'O' and whomever is next takes steps toward peace and only using force when it is a true moral imperative.
I did real well under the Bush Presidency as did many of my friends. Those folks were left and right. Then you libs took Congress in 2006 and the place went to hell in a hand-basket. Look in the mirror honey, you are the problem, we Republicans are the solution.
DeleteThings did seem good in GW's first term and part of the 2nd term. I think that globalization moves that preceded him, e.g., NAFTA, moves toward outsourcing overseas, and trade deficits. Without care, the economy can and did change, globalization.
DeleteI also did well back then. Now its a bit tougher. We've got to step-up and adapt to compete, and our politicians need to ensure a level playing field with foreign competitors.
I am a free trade fellow but you are right about the level playing field. Tariffs and open markets are major issues especially in China. Our goods need the same freedom of sales as we have given Chinese goods.
DeleteI wonder how they make the decisions on Tariffs and level playing field. We, the public, only get glimpse on a few items on the list of issues. There seems to be fear about the blow-back from foreign countries if we do level the field. There's a narrow and seemingly treacherous path to navigate.
DeleteScott,
DeleteWe, the US, don't get to control tariffs any longer. The WTO has stripped away our controls over much of how our economy works.
Todd,
DeleteYou "did well" based on a bubble. You did well based on one big fraud of an economy. Now WE the People want our money back from the fraud! The fraud of the Bush years was erpetrated by everyone who ran with the irresponsible Bush policies of the early 2000s. We are no safer now that we spent a couple of trillion dollars on those insane wars, and thanks to Dubya, we are forced to raise taxes and make painful cuts.
Jen, you are fighting a war from the past. You need to move along and gain some positive vibes honey. Anger issues can be harmful if you don't fix them.
DeleteI'm pointing out your anger. Confused?
DeleteDidn't like the war Jen?,,I bet you would look great in a burka.
DeleteThink the ones we are fighting honor your "women's rights"?
Take a trip to the Middle East, and see how well THEY treat their women. When and IF you get back, then tell us how bad the reasoning for the war is.
Didn't like the war. What does that comment about a burka have to do with any war we've been in since 2001? Was the Taliban going to invade America? Maybe Saddam's republican guard?
DeleteGee, you're a smart one Walt!
Shows what you truly know. Education for you has been sorely lacking. Why did "they" attack us? ( they hate our freedoms and way of life) I guess you were snoozing when "their" view of "women's rights" was being presented. Ever see pictures and videos of how they make their women dress and act? I bet you like to drive a car. Right?
DeleteDon't get caught behind a wheel "over there".
Now the Muslim Bro. hood has taken over the Middle East, and now has their sights set on Western civilization. Ever hear of Sharia law? They want US to impose that here, and some lunatic judges are actually helping them with that. Hear of honor killings? One or two judges think they should be allowed to have "their own religious law" here.
Get some education next time.
Can you name the Afghans/Taliban or any of the Iraqi bad-guys who "attacked us" Walt? Betyou were one of the ignorant pigs high-fiving as our massive bombs pounded Baghdad and killed hundreds of thousands of innocent human beings.
DeleteBack to name calling I see, And SO ill informed.
DeleteI will take what my Son has to say over you any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. He was there. 3 tours in Iraq, 4 in Afghanistan
Yup, he was a busy man.
Then there is my tenant in one of my rentals. He was exposed to that " nonexistent" nuke stuff, while working there to remove it, and is now riddled with cancer.
I will take his word over yours too.
Wlat, Jen was just cooking in the kitchen for the folks while your son was dodging Taliban.
DeleteWhat did the Iraqis do to you, and to the US, Walt? Why did we attack them and invade their country- at the cost of over a TRILLION dollars?
DeleteSuch the fiscally conservative approach.
Where did these "strong women" go we heard so much about?
ReplyDeleteNot one has come back with any answers. But their sure good
at B!&@&!ng and nagging. ( just sharing some of that equality with similar verbiage, graciously rendered my way.
lol, serenity now!!
DeleteWalt, they are trolls.
DeleteWalt, you're someone out of the 1940s, aren't you? You certainly don't appear to have evolved in the last 70 so years. Do you interact with any modern women?
DeleteOink oink.
Jen he is a happly married man to a good woman. Are you married to a man Jen?
DeleteGod I feel sorry for any woman married to that antique :)
DeleteAre you a married person? He is happy and his wife is happy. Are you happy?
DeleteLOL Chick,, I'm a Boomer. My lady doesn't preach "equality" she lives it. She married me for who and what I am. NOT for what I have, like so many Liberal women actually look for first.
DeleteI went through a lot of "gold diggers" before my real lady came along.
So how is your "mining operation" going? LOL!!
Chick? Keep proving my point Walt. Are you the gift that keeps on giving?
DeleteJust observing here but Jen/Stev aren't you calling us names?
DeleteCome on Jen... How come you won't answer any of the past questions?
DeleteYou think they will "just go away"? Not happening. Lets see some of
that "strong woman" we keep hearing about.( but have yet to see)
Your boyfriend get the same attitude from you that we get? ( me thinks so... lol)
Not one of you women can step up to the debate I have put up.
But there has been no shortage of bitchy attitude.
But if you want to keep it personal, that's fine with me too.
I have no problem going into "full construction worker mode"
and send you to your room in tears.
So what will it be? Debate the issues with facts, or continue
with the "tude fest"?
You seem to get off on talking down to women. What a sad sack you are.
DeleteYou started this little game, with your own "personal attacks".
DeleteNow you can't handle it? Your the one who started "talk'n down men".
So you think I'm just going to sit back and take it? FAT chance.
Your getting that "equality" you SOOOooo desperately want.
That means NO special treatment. Can't hack it? Better get back to that hemp and herbal tea circle, and whine about how men are so mean.
So you what "chivalry"? That only goes to women that deserve it. What to be treated like a lady? Try acting like one for a change.
Chivalry is just about dead. And you can thank your "sisterhood" for killing it. Welcome to "equality". You can get your own door.
I will still open the one for my Mrs.
What century are you living in? :) LOL!
DeleteIsn't it clear that this is all about retuning to the 19th century?
DeleteJen.. Any time you want to talk about those questions I put forth to you, have at it.
ReplyDeleteNeed a reminder? You know,,, about that guy
that calls himself a president?
He got there under the affirmative action program. He got the job because of the color of his skin, and not on his abilities of doing the job. (Don't bother trying to spin that into racism. I have many friends of color.)
Maybe "O" should open his school records. What do you think? How come "O" is known to have filed under " exchange student" with a birth place of Kenya. But that's not relevant?
Now's your chance to prove your "smartness".
Lets see if you can answer anything without making it personal. ( bets anyone?)
President Obama is the President of the US because he won the 2008 election Walt. He received 53% of the popular vote and about 10 million more votes than McCain. President Obama also had 365 electoral votes to McCain's 173. Our president was born in Hawaii, try some real facts not the same old dog and pony show lies.
ReplyDeleteKen Jones
Don't you think that's old news? Come on... You can do better than that.
Delete"Born in Hawaii" is vary questionable. Facts in evidence seem to point elsewhere.( fact) Lets take a peek at a few...#1 The published "document" is an admitted fake.(maybe not by "O", but his attorney did)
"O" will under no circumstances let the recorded one out for public scrutiny. WHY??????)
#2 "O" won't open his school records for the public eye. Why not? Bush had too... ( Libby double standard applies here)
#3 His own damned book makes comments to that fact.
#4 His Granny said so!
#5 Then LIBS throw the Natural born citizen rule out the window.
(The book of revisionism applies here) His Father wasn't a citizen no matter how you swing it.
Like I said. Just a few. Not vary "transparent" is he?
And you and your side just take his "word"( and Progressive news) at face value. " OK,, what ever ya"say dude,,, you got my vote,, I love your smile. That's good enough for me!"
Now if this had happened to be a Repub. with this kind of questionable baggage, the Left would have had a field day. ( again,, double standard applies)
OK,,Now it's your turn. Lets hear how Obummer is held to the same standards as a Repub.? Let's hear how after four years he can still say, " It's not my fault, Bush did it!"
Walt your facts are lies. Try snopes and you will see that the facts you cite are just bs. You won't accept a certified birth certificate yet demand more records. Truly irrational behavior. You should try reading they requirements to be the president. I do agree that President Obama isn't transparent, but name a president that was. But your assertion that progressives voted for President Obama because of a smile is childish. The GOP decided to oppose Everything proposed by our president to further the GOP and conservatives at the expense of our nation. Party before country dude. So Bush decided to go to war against Iraq that had ZERO involvement in 911 and no WMDS and you give President Bush a pass and whine about debt under the current president. You conservatives own one hell of a lot of responsibility for our nation's debt. Democrats also own responsibility as well. However in Wally World all is regressive and blame is only to be focused on LIBS. Time to try reality.
DeleteKen Jones
Like I thought. You take his B.C. at face value. Yup,, it's a certified FAKE. I can source many a web site to that fact. And you site ONE, of questionable credibility. Not to mention spending 3 million to keep it hid. So,, nothing to hide? That's sure an expensive " Nuttin to see here."
DeleteAgain you want to "revise" ,,"Natural Born". Typical LIB gamesmanship. So what about his school records???
It's time to leave Bush out of it. This is ALL "O". You can Chase that rabbit all you like.
Gotta love that "blame Bush". Will that be "O"'s primary line in the debates? LOL " I'm blameless... It's..it's my predecessors fault.
I inherited this! ( never mind that I single handedly spent more than anyone in U.S. history)
Party before country you say? OH,, Glad you brang that up.
What did the GOP just do in MO.? That's right,, they cut him off of any funding, and wanted him to step down. Now to "O" " Win by any means necessary.
At least you tried. I will give you that. You picked the easy targets as suspected, but never really touching the hard stuff.
Our nation is in the crapper because of LIBS pure and simple.
You blame Bush, but fail to recognize that Queen Nan and Prince Harry were in charge the second half of the Bush term. Forget that little detail? If Bush signed it, LIBS wrote it.
Now you want to point fingers at the Conservatives once again.
Forget the supermajority? For TWO YEARS "O" passed everything he wanted. But somehow us Conservatives get the heat. ONLY in the mid term elections did we take the lower house. Sticking with me here??
You on the Left lost your ass that night.
Harry Reid is sitting on how many bills? And you want to blame us? LOL!!
Then there is the little problem with the budget... 3 and a half years? Really???? Good luck pinning that on us as well. The LIB budget didn't get one vote. LIBS won't let the Conservative budget come up for a vote. I guess that's out fault too.
Yes.. Time to try reality.
Oh boy, Walt can cite a website...he he he.
DeleteGiven the history of our nation, it's pretty amazing that a man of color won the Whitehouse. Can't say I agree with all of his decisions, but he is very bright and likable.
ReplyDeleteHas the President's race played a role in the divisiveness in congress and congress's desire to block the President's agenda?
I will take the Lefty silence to my pointed questions as admitting defeat once again.
ReplyDeleteNot "one" of them will take on the real debate or questions.
They scatter like critters when the lights go on.
Obummer says " Mitt gives no new ideas". Hay,, that works for me.
ReplyDeleteWe are going back to some of the OLD ideas that worked.
Do you have a life? Seriously, Walt, I understand you missed out on an education, but really, do you find that posting ignorant gibberish all day, 24/7 is a fullfilling mission in life? :)
DeleteObviously my education has been better than yours. The proof is in your posts.
DeleteYou just can't answer ANY questions. Poor Dear.... All you have are personal little digs, of no consequence.( speaking of gibberish)
Education you say? well.. This ditch digger has vary well for himself and family. Homes,I have more than one. cars,( less than 8 years old) property, and prior to "O" , a healthy bank account.
It actually takes some smarts to get where I am.
Now it's time for you to move out of Mommy and Daddy's house, and stand on your own two feet. ( no gold digging allowed)
Yeah, obviously. :)
Deleteyou are quite ill, Walt.
Walt clearly has nothing better to do with his life than sit on this forum and ague with people. Even though Todd owns this blog he obviously has better things to do than sit on here all day like Walt. Maybe Walt should go get a hobby or do something else with his time.
ReplyDeleteI see Todd has let you slip through the cracks again.
DeleteNot a thing to say, just show up and gutter snipe.
But I see you finally found an unsecured wifi signal for the moment.
You must get a lot of exercise moving from location to location
with an Internet detector, looking for a free connection.

DeleteExactly, this is a blog for the Republican party and supports Mr. Bain and Eddie Munster 100%
DeleteWalt and Todd's hatred of women is astounding, but not that unusual for conservative, bible thumping, gun toting Teapublicans. I can hardly wait to hand them their collective butts in November. They will be left jabbering and yammering to empty chairs. LOL. Fools!
ReplyDeleteWow, Barbara is a man hater! Who woulda thunk that? Probably as good looking as Bella Abzug and angry as hell about that. No Babs, I love women and they love me. Walt has to answer for himself. You haters will be smacked down so badly in November it will take a generation of your liberal teachers squishing lefty hate into the minds of the young captives at school to recover. What a hoot!
DeleteI thought you wanted equal treatment? So because you might wear
Deletea skirt you want "special" treatment? Sort of goes against that "equality" thing don't you think? ( "how dare you speak to a woman in that manner!" Right?) You can't pick and choose your "equality".
Want respect? EARN it like everyone else.
Speaking of special treatment, Do tell why "O" is getting it.
There were things demanded of Bush from Lefties, and the Left got them. Now "O" has been asked to fork over vary similar items. But NOPE,,NOT going to get'm. Just like the double standard YOU want.
Spending 3 Mil. to keep your records sealed is telling.( he has something to hide)
It is not at all clear how this election will go. There has been lots of miss-information on both sides, and the Romney camp has lots of funding. The
ReplyDeleteonly glitches that Romney has are connecting with the people, his personal affiliations, and his seemingly privileged life.
Obama has his own problems, either true or manufactured by the opposition.
Bottom-line, whoever has the most campaign funds has the odds on their side.
There may be a threshold of funding where more funding doesn't matter, that
we will have to wait to see.
Todd.. It's time to place some bets. We both know how desperation has set in with "O" and Co.
ReplyDeleteFrom just about paying people to come to their convention, to the lying about Mitt and Paul "lying".
So think they will gin up and stage a "tea Party" activist disruption? The need to try and make someone look bad other than their sorry selves.
Some Progressives tried that at the RNC, and received a good old fashioned "bums rush" right out the door. CODE PINK didn't stand a chance.
Yup,, count on Libs to stage some fake hate. They had some practice staging a few fake faintings at "O"'s speeches.
Nothing is below them at this point.
Now.. Glen Beck was nice enough not to hold his own "little"(lol) get together in Iowa AFTER "O" has his vote begging this week.
Just think how empty the convention would be if Beck decided to hold his event at the same time? Our LIBS have no clue how many of their own went to Texas to add support for Beck's cause. ( I happen to have met quite a few
X-Lefties when we were there.
Yes Leftys.. It's time to give credit where credit is due. Beck is giving "O" and co. their little moment in the sun unimpeded. That was sure nice of him.
OK LIB women,, Question... Any of you big Roseanne Bar fans? Take her beliefs to heart?
ReplyDeleteSorry to rain on the parade Todd but the Repub cluster has garnered the smallest bump in modern history

Romney post-convention bump looks modest at best
"9:33 am September 3, 2012, by Jay
The folks at Gallup have completed their post-GOP convention polling duties, and the reviews are not complimentary. Mitt Romney has enjoyed little or no post-convention bump, and his acceptance speech was rated excellent or good by just 38 percent of those who saw it.
While that may not sound terrible, Gallup reports that it is easily the worst rating given to any of the last eight convention acceptance speeches. "
Accordng to Gallup
By that measure, the 2012 Republican convention had the lowest-ever self-reported net impact on voter intentions ever (+2, the difference between the more and less likely percentages), just slightly lower than the Republican conventions of 2004 (+3) and 2008 (+5).
Well PaulE what are you doing here? Slumming eh?
ReplyDeleteI think you have to add in all the twitter, Facebook, Blaze and the hundreds if not thousands of other sources people used to watch the convention. I don't think the country that will be booting you libs from office cares about the ratings for the convention. But you can keep your hope alive.
Rush alone has 20 million listeners a week. Your favorite MSNBC has what 100,000?
Regarding the "lowest impact" on voters. The country has made up ts mind for the most part and it will be Romney/Ryan by 7. We keep the House and gain the Senate. Life is sweet.
I'm counting on a fresh corndog from you next year at the County Fair. There are signs of Romney-Ryan impitance if you look at the tinny bump from the convention. Or perhaps it's electile dysfunction.
ReplyDeleteNow that's funny! Electile dysfunction! Can I steal that?

January 30, 2008 Urban Word of the Day
The inability to become aroused over any of the choices for President put forth by either party during an election year.
"Is anyone appealing to you in this years presidential race?"
"Naa... No one excites me. I think I'm suffering from Electile Dysfunction."
Ryan Romney tiny bump-impetance is original though. You're free to use that.
